Young, but the tannins are very fine grained. Cassis, cherry, plum, ink, river stone, oak and vanilla. Silky, sexy and fruity now, but should be better balanced in 5-10 years.

think I am more of a Bettina person than normal Bryant Family...easy to drink with some density and quite a few years left....purple, black ink with plum, dark fruit and black current.....right amounts of herb, mint and terroir to counterbalance the sweetness...but given it's Napa, still a little bit on the sweet side...nice for new world wine.
